May you explain it to me as well Mathieu ?
We haven't actually tried, but it involves sending to the pd object a "open" message from a small patch controlled by [netreceive]. Then, from outside pd, try to netsend the filename to the default port, and if connection is refused, then start that small patch. This patch can be hidden by sending "vis 0" to its own receive-symbol, via [namecanvas] or the other way.
Makes sense?
Kind of does yeah.
If I folow you it then involves that the window manager (call it whatever you want, but the program that calls pd to open when a double click is issued on a patch file) talks netsend to a patch already inside pd. Don't programs, like xmms for instance, usually kind of detect there's already an instance running and thus tell it to open the once-again-clicked-supported-filetype instead of running a new one ? Is this task OS or program-wise ? (er... I'm a noob programer).
A Paris/Montréal flight might have been a bit too expensive for such a workaround...
Le truc, c'est qu'il faut trouver plus de choses à faire à Montréal en même temps, pour amortir les coûts... :)
Sure would have more things to do there but... l'emploi du temps est rempli pour le moment (-:
